The Bakery Sector

The Bakery sector, often referred as the one of baked products, basically includes all foods that come from the cooking of dough in which the basic ingredients are flour, water, yeast and salt. The primary classification of foods belonging to this sector includes:

Cakes and soft products

Bread, pizza and leavened products

Snacks and breadsticks

Bakery improvers

Dry and protein pasta

Biscuits and dry cakes

Baked products without gluten

Let’s classify them

It is possible to classify Bakery products according to two other criteria: acidity and the amount of free water.

Classifying baked goods by acidity, we will therefore have

pH
4,6/7

low-acid baked goods, with a pH between 4.6 and 7 (white bread, wholemeal bread, walnut bread);

pH
7+

non-acid baked goods, with a pH higher than 7 (plum cake, muffins).

Free Water

Aw
0,6-

low-humidity baked goods, with Aw lower than 0.6 (biscuits, crackers);

Aw
0,6/0,85

intermediate humidity baked goods, with Aw between 0.6 and 0.85 (cream pastries, soft biscuits);

Aw
7+

high humidity baked goods, with Aw above 0.85 and between 0.95 and 0.99 (fruit cake, cheese cake)

The needs of Bakery sector

Bakery products, like all processed foods, are subject to physical-chemical alterations and microbiological deterioration. Bakery production industries must also often adapt their recipes to the evolution of the market in a healthier and more sustainable direction, and manage the growing aversion to everything that

is perceived as artificial, while maintaining a high level of appeal for their products in order to be able to conquer/win wide range of customers.
